From: Extracellular matrix stiffness aggravates urethral stricture through Igfbp3/Smad pathway
Higher Matrix stiffness stimulate FMT in urethral fibrosis. (A) qRT-PCR detection of α-SMA and Collagen I mRNA expression in primary rat urethral fibroblasts cultured with different extracellular matrix stiffness; (B) Western blotting; (C) Statistical analysis of B; (D) would healing test; (E) Statistical analysis of D, n = 3; (F) Transwell test; (G) statistical analysis of E, p < 0.001 (**); p < 0.001 (***); p < 0.0001 (****), n = 3.
